cw: brief mention of suicide (not graphic and not discussed)

“My god, Nian ge actually chose the effort team!”

“No way, the ability team will win for sure.”

“Brothers pinch me. I’m not dreaming right, Nian ge actually chose our side from the start! “

…

After Ji Xiunian announced his choice, nearly everyone was struck dumb.

Even Liang Da, after hearing his decision, wanted to confirm it another time. “Xiunian, you’re sure about choosing the effort team?”

“I’m sure.” Ji Xiunian’s expression was firm, and he didn’t feel like this decision was anything special.

“Okay okay.” He had already said what he did, and Liang Da didn’t want to push it either, so he politely said, “Then let’s invite our first effort team head to go and sit by the effort team.”

It just so happened that Lu Xu’s position was the one closest to the centre, so Ji Xiunian very naturally stood beside him.

The gazes of the two met and they couldn’t help but smile; in the eyes of other people, it gave off a different feeling.

“It couldn’t be that Nian ge chose the effort team because of Xu ge, right?”

Seeing Ji Xiunian walk over to Lu Xu’s side, that was Xu Lele’s first reaction.

When he thought about it, he felt that it couldn’t just be because their relationship was good that Ji Xiunian chose that team. Maybe it was a result of the show?

The camera followed Ji Xiunian and then landed on Lu Xu, the two of them happened to be in the same frame.

Liang Da saw this and immediately asked, “Lu Xu, are you happy that Xiunian chose you guys?”

This question had its limitations. Lu Xu naturally only smiled and said, “Very happy.”

Liang Da continued, “Then, Xiunian chose the effort team because he believed in you all. Do you have faith in your first performance?”

The camera once again panned to Lu Xu. He tilted his head and glanced at Ji Xiunian, then smiled, his eyes curving into crescents. “Since Ji Xiunian chose to believe in us, then our effort team will definitely do our very best, isn’t that right?”

“Right!” The group of trainees behind him raised their voices in agreement. Perhaps their abilities couldn’t hold up to the others, but the contest hadn’t ended yet. They at least couldn’t lose in attitude.

Liang Da nodded and gave them a few words of encouragement before turning around to look towards Gu Wenan and continuing on with the show’s program. “Wenan, choose a team between the ability and effort teams to lead. What’s your choice?”

Gu Wenan looked at the ability teams then looked at the Ji Xiunian standing by the effort teams. After hesitating for a moment, he said, “Since Xiunian chose the effort team, then I will definitely choose the ability team. The two groups have to be balanced; it’ll be fair this way.

No one thought his choice was out of the ordinary. The ability teams were even more enthusiastic in welcoming their first instructor.

At this moment, Qin Kewei and Shen Chengyu were the only remaining mentors.

Liang Da’s eyes twinkled as he looked back and forth between the two of them. His gaze landed on Qin Kewei. “The female mentor goes first. Kewei, make your choice first—effort team and ability team, which one will you choose?”
